Sunday will be a Super Bowl many Siskiyou County NFL fans have been waiting a long time for.For the first time since 1995 the San Francisco 49ers are Super Bowl bound.

With a good number of Niners fans in Siskiyou County there should be a ton of memorable Super Bowl parties as fans root for their beloved Niners.

My hope is to do a story on what it means to die hard 49er's fans to finally make another Super Bowl after an 18-year absence from the big game.

I plan to talk to as many fans here as possible about any Niner memories they would like to share, plans for the big game, and what makes them such Niners fanatics.

And, I would like to hear from fans about what it means to them to finally have the Niners back in the Super Bowl

Perhaps there's even a fan or two that are heading to New Orleans for the big game.

And, I know that some people put out quite the spread on Super Bowl Sunday. If you think you or you friends or relatives party or a particular dish or dishes is out of sight, let me know. The more readers I hear from the better.

So, if you are a huge Niners fan or know anyone that would be good to talk to please call or write to me by Thursday at 10 a.m.

And, if there are any huge Baltimore Raven fans out there that live in Siskiyou County or have connections here please feel free to write or call me as well.

If you do want to write to me and share your memories make sure to give me your first and last name and what city you live in.

I would also like to hear from these establishments as well and find out about their preparations for Sunday and how many more people they expect this year compared to other Super Bowls because of the presence of the Niners in the Super Bowl.

I'm a huge fan of San Fransisco signal caller Colin Kaepernick. I feel if he keeps this up he will become on of the best if not best quarterback in the NFL in a few years time. While I think Alex Smith was a better than average quarterback, I believe that head coach Jim Harbaugh made the right call to put in Kaepernick. His bold move has been rewarded with a Super Bowl berth. And, of course, the game has been hyped up quite a bit in the national media because of Jim and John Harbaugh. I am looking forward to having two brothers as head coaches of the two Super Bowl teams. It's not something that's ever happened before after all.

So, who do I think will come away with the victory? Good question. Baltimore has looked impressive in the playoffs and are solid on both sides of the field. I have never been the biggest Joe Flacco fan but I've got to admit he has been slinging the ball with accuracy as of late. I was impressed with his performance against the Patriots in the AFC Championship game. While the Ravens defense may not be as strong as in previous years it still has some very talented players such as Ed Reed and Ray Lewis. Of course, the Niners defense is quite good and can help them to victory.

Page 3 of 3 - It is always a crap shoot to predict a winner of the Super Bowl. And, I have been hit and miss. I admit that I picked the Patriots last year. But, if I had to take an educated guess I'm going to say the Niners by a touchdown.
